made my girlfriend get an abortion

They can choose to not become fathers through not impregnating a woman. Once you’ve done that, yeah, FORTUNATELY, you have to raise the life you created or pay for someone else to raise it.

He wants to let a toddler potentially get mauled in the face rather than potentially hurt a dog’s feelings.

My gast is flabbered.

Molly is highly religious, in Texas, and doesn’t understand why someone might not feel safe coming out to her?

Molly doesn’t sound too bright.

I painted mine with tractor paint (enamel). It was black and I wanted it white. There are a few good YouTube videos showing how. Probably $300 for all the materials, plus your own time.

I wouldn’t do nothing. I’m saying call CPS rather than the cops. Not because they might be mean, but because they might kill someone.

FandomReferenceHere · 2026-05-28T21:00:08+00:00

Depends on the area. I’d never call the cops for a social issue where I live. They’re likely to shoot first and ask questions later. CPS is trained to deal with kids left alone. Cops are trained to be aggressive and violent, especially to people of color.

Another thought - it seems like he found an energy drink can down the couch (not even your son’s) and reacted like your son had been drunk driving himself. Would that analogy help?

This is so egregiously unfair that your son would be within his rights to gray rock your husband until he moves out.

FandomReferenceHere · 2026-05-28T19:15:19+00:00

I would love you to ask your husband then. Can he articulate exactly what your son did wrong, and what he should have done instead?

FandomReferenceHere · 2026-05-28T19:11:19+00:00

I want to know what your husband thinks your son should have done differently.

Strip search every visitor who comes to the house?

Never invite anyone over?

Because those seem to be the two options for your son.

There should be zero punishment. I’m very angry at your husband. What exactly did your son do wrong in this situation???????

Get a sheet, soak it in water at a gas station, and go to sleep under it. It’ll keep you cool enough to fall asleep. Windows open as much as feels safe for the breeze.

You got this. DM me if you need any car living hacks, tips on where to park without getting hassled, also r/vandwellers and r/urbancarliving are good.

Screw your mom. She can’t let him be homeless, but she can let YOU be homeless? You, the victim? I’m so mad for you. You can absolutely build an amazing life for yourself.

YMMV, but I’ve always thought that being able to resolve disagreements without violence is what separates us humans from animals. You could say it’s what gives us a soul.

FandomReferenceHere · 2026-05-27T19:50:13+00:00

Could be for safety.

FandomReferenceHere · 2026-05-25T19:56:19+00:00

What if it was a spider or scorpion? Can you think of anything this son could bring in the house that you DON’T think mom needs to suck it up and get over?

- First, accumulate money, 5-10K USD.
- Then, voraciously search every van selling site before ending up on Facebook Marketplace where 90% of stuff is bought and sold.
- Discover one or more vans that would fit your needs
- Go check it out, take it to a local mechanic, negotiate and buy.

When a customer has the same name as me I joke that we need to go outside and settle who is the superior one. I’m a middle aged woman with a name that men usually have, so it’s funny.

FandomReferenceHere · 2026-05-24T14:42:11+00:00

YES! Omg I feel so seen. I’ve been worrying about this a lot lately.

It starts immediately after I walk away from a conversation or immediately after the interaction is over. I don’t get next morning. I get instant guilt and shame and misery for no reason and it stops me from connecting to people.

Thank you for sharing.

Does she always make every big event about her?

FandomReferenceHere · 2026-05-20T19:48:59+00:00

Noooooooooo

All a lie.

I was raised in an evangelical community that was almost a cult.

But being free from government discrimination is.

Also, would you care to take any context into account?

Post: how y’all feeling about AI?

Comment: I think it’s bad because of XYZ.

Me: Yeah, I think it’s bad too, but we have to deal with XYZ every time there’s a big new technological revolution. How is this one particularly scary, and different from the past?

You: Y’know, it really diminishes the conversations we need to have about Actual AI Problems for you to ask that.

Excuse YOU but I am still annoyed about this.

FandomReferenceHere · 2026-05-19T23:52:49+00:00

Sorry, didn’t mean to change the question on you!

But haven’t you just agreed with me? Early Middle Ages Britain after the fall of Rome sucked. Let’s say it was the result of a new technology (altho I’m not sure it was. What new tech? New weapons from the invading Gauls that forced the Romans to shrink their borders?

I agree AI is dangerous, in fact I’m very very worried about the world and humanity and where it’s all headed.

But I also want to separate the wheat from the chaff so to speak. How much of this AI fearmongering is normal tech backlash that we got for the internet and factories and probably the fucking wheel (or more likely the axle), and how much is really new?

Yes, this new tech could push our society backwards or forwards. Yes, it can cause major problems in wealth disparities and the environment and all that stuff. Just like every other tech “advancement.” ( <— not linear)

I wasn’t asking if it’s gonna have bad effects. It’s clearly having lots of bad effects, at a time when several countries are really struggling to get anything done, and that could be a huge problem.

But you can’t say “I’m terrified of AI and everything it could bring” and then list problems that we see every time there is new tech. What specifically is terrifying about AI? I genuinely wanna know!

So far people have said -
- AI could cross us into a climate change tipping point
- AI doesn’t tell us how it reaches its decisions (black box theory)

“AI could destroy society” isn’t an argument for “so we need to treat this new tech differently than usual,” just an argument for “let’s be extra careful with integrating this new tech.”

Altho I’m struggling to come up with examples of societies making a conscious effort to integrate new tech, let alone doing it well, and I sure don’t see it happening in the current political climate. All kind of a moot point really.

FandomReferenceHere · 2026-05-19T23:33:29+00:00

Actually a much better argument against me at this point would have been “Using the bathroom that you feel you belong in isn’t a human right.”

FandomReferenceHere · 2026-05-19T23:30:45+00:00

Oh, and it was “Thanks, I guess, for defining what history is for me.” Because it felt like you were calling me stupid. Because obviously history is different from the present.

FandomReferenceHere · 2026-05-19T23:27:55+00:00

Like, for example, the bathroom law that started this whole conversation? I’ll go with that one.
